Ayurveda believes that hair fall control is very much associated with the body type and also the stability of your mind-body structure. Ayurveda considers the hair as a by-product for bone formation. The tissues which are responsible for formation of bones are also responsible for your hair growth.

Some causes of chapped and dry lips are over exposure to sunlight, less water consumption, lack of vitamin A, B and C, skin disorder of any kind, riboflavin deficiency, use of allergic cosmetic products, smoking or alcohol consumption. Cut down smoking / alcohol consumption completely. Massage lips daily with almond oil or olive oil. Apply ghee, butter, or milk cream daily at bed time. This will keep lips soft.

One of the most common reasons for dull and dark lips is smoking. Stress can also take its toll by making your lips dark. Also regular use of cosmetics and lipsticks, particularly use of low grade products, can make your lips dark. According to ayurveda, lips tend to crack, become painful and dark when vata dosha increases. This vitiated vata can be normalized by applying warm ghee infused with vata balancing herbs. Rub lemon juice to remove the darkness of lips.

MENTAL & EMOTIONAL HEALTH

For a healthy life it is essential to be without tensions. Tensions have a detrimental effect on the nervous system, digestion, sleep, blood pressure, muscles etc. leading to toxicity and innumerable diseases.

1. The easiest way to achieve freedom from tension is to have a positive attitude.

2. Early morning walk, exercise, yoga asanas, pranayama, meditation and yoga – nidra are extremely useful to remove tension.

3. Try to find out the root cause of problems and find their solutions because problems come with their solutions and new opportunities come.

4. The remote control of your happiness should be in your own hand, not in another one else. If you get tensed up due to something said or done by others, it indicates that the remote control of your happiness is in others hands.

5. Welcome criticism because it is useful for you.

6. Accept situations and people as they are.
